BELIEVER, GOD DETHRONED Featured In Latest METAL BLADE Podcast

May 28, 2009

Click here to download the latest Metal Blade podcast featuring reactivated late '80s/early '90s technical-thrash metallers BELIEVER and the Dutch melodic death metal band GOD DETHRONED.

BELIEVER's fourth album, "Gabriel", was released in March through KILLSWITCH ENGAGE frontman Howard Jones's new imprint label Cesspool Records via Metal Blade. The CD features guest appearances by Jones, Joe Rico (SACRIFICE),CKY/WORLD UNDER BLOOD guitarist/vocalist Deron Miller and Rocky Gray (EVANESCENCE, SOUL EMBRACED, LIVING SACRIFICE).

Regarding the musical direction of the album, Kurt Bachman recently told Decibel magazine, "We think that fans will hear some of each record but the writing is a bit different. It's still BELIEVER but we wanted to offer something new as we have in the past. Some people would like us to put out another 'Sanity Obscure' or 'Dimensions' but we didn't want to rehash the past. Those close to us have said that the new material sounds like a natural progression from 'Dimensions'. We wanted to have fun with this and get back to our emotional metal roots. Getting together to write and record was exciting. It's when the creativity and insanity was let loose."

GOD DETHRONED will embark on the "Storming the Balkans Tour 2009" in June/July. Support on the trek will come from FLESHGOD APOCALYPSE and SACRAMENTAL BLOOD.

GOD DETHRONED will return to North America for a short tour in the fall. Support on the trek will come from ABIGAIL WILLIAMS, WOE OF TYRANTS and AUGURY.

Tickets are on sale now through EnterTheVault.com exclusively until June 11 at which point they will be made available through all normal ticketing services.

GOD DETHRONED's latest album, "Passiondale", was released in April as a limited double digipack edition including a bonus CD. The double-digipack features stunning artwork and two discs: the regular album plus a live recording from 2005 featuring nine songs!

The CD was recorded at Soundlodge studios in Germany with producer Jörg Uken.
